Hello all, I am trying to fix an issue with my dual xeon ibm server, it only detects 3GB or RAM but I have 4GB: CPU: Intel(R) Xeon(TM) CPU 3.00GHz (3000.13-MHz 686-class CPU) Origin = "GenuineIntel" Id = 0xf41 Stepping = 1 Features=0xbfebfbff<FPU,VME,DE,PSE,TSC,MSR,PAE,MCE,CX8,APIC,SEP,MTRR,PGE,MCA ,CMOV,PAT,PSE36,CLFLUSH,DTS,ACPI,MMX,FXSR,SSE,SSE2,SS,HTT,TM,PBE> Features2=0x641d<SSE3,RSVD2,MON,DS_CPL,CNXT-ID,CX16,xTPR> AMD Features=0x20000000<LM> Logical CPUs per core: 2 real memory = 3355234304 (3199 MB) avail memory = 3278614528 (3126 MB) ACPI APIC Table: <IBM SERONYXP> FreeBSD/SMP: Multiprocessor System Detected: 4 CPUs I have read that OPTION PAE in kernel would fix the problem but I have also read that compiling FreeBSD AMD64 might be a better solution, any advices before I break my current setup? Thanks -fred
